Which Should You Buy?
Our Verdict - Crystal Noir EDT
This EDT is a divisive beast: some rave about its fresh, creamy spice, others smell cleaning products or worse. Despite the controversy, its impressive performance for an EDT makes it a cult classic, with many finding it a sophisticated, sexy signature scent.

Our Verdict - No 22 Crystal Noir Extrait
No 22 gets Versace Crystal Noir's spiced pepper-cardamom opening and coconut-gardenia heart genuinely close, but the sandalwood-amber base fades quicker, losing the smoky mystery the designer original holds onto.

Its impressive longevity and sillage, even as an EDT, make it versatile for most occasions but might be a bit much for a conservative office. The 'sexy, mysterious' vibe and creamy woods make it ideal for dates and special evenings, while its freshness allows for daytime and casual wear.
